In 1990 Andy Williamson opened Midwest Boat Appeal for business in Tonka Bay, offering boat cleaning and detailing services. After two years MWB expanded services to include fiberglass and gel coat repair along with wood refinishing. In 1995 the business was moved to Excelsior on the shores of Lake Minnetonka. The larger site allowed us to work on larger projects in refinishing and restoration. We also expanded into winterizing and winter storage. In 2000, we purchased our current site in St. Bonifacius, conveniently located between Lake Minnetonka and Lake Waconia, west of the Twin Cities. This acquisition gave us the opportunity to again expand our services where we offer complete care for antique and classic wood and modern day fiberglass boats. Our services are: Refinishing, Restoration, Structural and Cosmetic Repairs, Cleaning, Detailing, Winterizing, Storage, and Full Mechanical Service.

In 2009 we acquired Midwest Marine Plywood, formerly located in Eagan, MN. This allows us to stock a full line of imported marine grade plywood. These products are used in our day to day operations and are available for sale on a retail and wholesale level.

Midwest Boat Appeal prides itself on experience, knowledge and integrity. Every customer gets 100% effort each and every time. We are always available for your questions to give knowledgeable information. Whether you’re looking for annual storage, repairs, restoration, supplies or technical advice, our goal is to provide high quality service with high quality product every time, so you can spend more time on the water, enjoying your watercraft.
